First lets get 3% into decimal form. 

3% is 3/100  = 0.03

Now multiply 0.03 by 47000 to get how much extra money she was going to get. 

47000 * 0.03 = 1410

Now we just add
47000 + 1410 = 48410 is what she was going to make in 2012

Another way to do this is 

(47000)(1+0.03) = 48410

you would use (1+0.03) which tells you she increased in pay.

Mrs.Stone is three times older than her younger daughter, Joyce, but only two times older than her older daughter, Alex. How old
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

54 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Joyce age = x

Alex age = y

3x = 2y - - - (1)

y - 9 = 2(x - 9)

y - 9 = 2x - 18

-9 + 18 = 2x - y

9 = 2x - y

y = 2x - 9 - - (2)

3x = 2y

3x = 2(2x - 9)

3x = 4x - 18

18 = 4x - 3x

18 = x

Hence,

Mrs stone is 3 * 18 = 54 years
